Finished reading The Kite Runner on my way back from Atlanta. I was hesitant about this book at first since I'm not a huge fan of anti-war books or most NYT bestseller books, but this book really impressed me. It read like an autobiography and opened my eyes to the trials and tribulations of modern day Afghanistan.
My favorite quote from the novel:
"After all, life is not a Hindi movie. Zendagi migzara, Afghans like to say: Life goes on, unmindful of beginning, end, kamyab, nah-kam, crisis or catharsis, moving forward like a slow, dusty caravan of kochis."
